View of the Round Tower from the Quadrangle, Windsor Castle

RCIN 2084847

Glass plate negative of a photograph showing the Round Tower from the Quadrangle, Windsor Castle. The equestrian statue of King Charles II is visible at the foot of the tower's motte and the State Entrance on the left.

The glass plate negative has been photographed showing the coated side and therefore the image appears laterally reversed. The original work used to produce this negative may have been any of the following RCINs: 2100164, 2100362, 2100338. For a variant by the same photographer see, RCIN 2100014.
